Did you go with the Ultra or triode version? I'm collecting parts to try an Ultra build.
I wired the triode version. It produces more than enough power for my application and I didn't want to give up any gain.
I've tried 4 sets of 6L6 so far: JJ, Electro-Harmonix, old Sylvania and GE. I like the JJ's best. Tighter bass and more extended highs than the others. I've also used JJ E34L's which sounded almost the same. The older tubes sounded fatter and somewhat laid back.
The differences were subtle and all five sets produced very listenable sound.
